Beast Posted May 12, 2016 at 05:06 PM Posted May 12, 2016 at 05:06 PM I was so happy with who got through in the first semi (the stronger semi imo). I like the San Marino song but yes he was terrible, so I changed my mind on that one and out of nowhere I found myself loving Moldova . I'd have put her through instead of Azerbaijan.I was pleased that Greece and Bosnia Herz didn't make it - fine songs until they were ruined by hideous rapping. Rapping never improved any song ever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For this evening, I'd like the 10 qualifiers to be : Bulgaria (my fav song in this years contest !)Latvia LithuaniaIsraelAustraliaBelgiumSerbiaUkrainePoland ^^ that's nine !Hmm for the 10th one, I'll decide during the show. I like Denmark, Belarus, Albania, Macedonia. So, my 10th spot will be one of those. Probably Denmark....but I'm expecting Albania & Macedonia to wow me with their vocals. Ooh it's a tough one. Anyone but Ireland. I'm cringing that we keep sending non singers - Dustin The Turkey, Jedward, Jedward, Kacey Smith, and now Nicky Byrne. Please use his performance as an opportunity to go make a cuppa , or go to the loo, or something. Anything, really. Celine Dion fans are used to powerful voices and I wouldn't want to put any of you through the suffering of listening to the limp croaky dirge that is Sun (pause) light. 2 Quote

France, Poland, Australia, Serbia and Lithuania are just in the middle of the pack ... which should help them Best placements to perform: Spain right after Russia, Latvia, Malta, UK and Armenia as last ... 1 Quote
Davey84 Posted May 13, 2016 at 03:14 PM Posted May 13, 2016 at 03:14 PM I wasn't able to watch last night, only saw the recap, I must say, I didn't like most of the songs... I think Ireland got mugged! That song wasn't THAT great either, but better than many song that did made it to the finals. I think the fact the UK can't vote is working against them a lot... 2 Quote http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/daveyh84/incognito198701_zpsaaootxh1.jpgRick, ik hou van jou voor altijd!A New Day... has come 28/29 April & 2/3 May 07Antwerpen 13 et 14 mai,Paris 24 et 25 mai, Amsterdam 2 juinet Arras 7 juillet Chances Taken!!!How Do You Keep The Music Playing? - Celine Opening Night March 15th, March 16th

Ukrfan Posted May 14, 2016 at 06:24 PM Posted May 14, 2016 at 06:24 PM (edited) I hope Russia wins, love his song and performance. And Lazarev is a very nice person unlike most of russian show biz. Although would support my own Ukraine had Jamala choice not been so corruption. She didn't win the national selection. The judges didn't even try to hide that everything had already been decided. Shame on Jamala and her totally political song. Edited May 14, 2016 at 06:33 PM by Ukrfan Quote
Beast Posted May 14, 2016 at 06:41 PM Posted May 14, 2016 at 06:41 PM It's hard to type as I'm doing cartwheels of joy, from the result of Semi 2 ! I voted for Bulgaria ,Latvia and Lithuania. My nine wants/predictions came true !!I was happy enough with Georgia getting through - not my kind of song, but I don't mind it, and it was different so can see why others like it. You know that scene in the restaurant from When Harry Met Sally ? Well, since Nicky Byrne flopped, my reaction has been like Meg Ryan ever since. My eyes are still rolling back in my head. Fabulous. I backed some countries, weeks ago. So, I'll be voting for those I've placed bets on. They're all outsiders and not expected to get anywhere. I'd love a long shot to surprise everyone and win the whole thing !! Quote
